Do I have to remove the AC / PS bracket to remove the Intake Manifold or is there a way to move it forward?? It covers one of the Intake Manifold bolts.

I do not have the required Pully to remove the PS pulley!

Yes, you have to remove the A/C compressor to remove the intake, you can rent the tool to pull the P/S or purchase the puller from Napa, it is available through most tool companies such as OTC, Snap-On, etc.. it is a 2 piece half moon with an outter ring that holds the two halves together over the outter flange of the pulley, then the bolt in the center uses a centering bit that centers inside the pump shaft and presses the pulley outward and off to gain access to the bolts. The good thing is, that you can then loosen the bolts and ease the whole assembly forward as there is no reason to remove the assemmbly completely to gain acces to the intake bolts only an inch or two.

What I have done in the past is just cut a notch in the bracket - just enough to get the bolt out and you should be all good! Once you put the a/c compressor back on you wont even be able to see it. Good luck!
